Description

A 2007 Emerging Leader project (Project CC)See: http://wikis.ala.org/emergingleaders/index.php/Project_CC was to create a recruitment video. We propose this year to build on that and to create additional recruitment videos for librarianship and RUSA. With the experience of the first group as our guide, at least two videos to be displayed on YouTube, librarycareers.org, and other appropriate outlets will be created. One video would be aimed at getting people interested in librarianship and one would be aimed at getting people to join ALA/RUSA

Expected Outcomes

New recruitment tools for the association and the profession would be created. The Emerging Leaders would have the opportunity to produce, edit and promote the product
